The Northerners left the room.


They are not in the room but the ones ruling educated.

Southern Nigeria doing wonders here and there.

Unlike one region that their political elite is on a mission of deliberating making them backward in all positive indices so as to be able to use them for political gains

But at the end of all this struggles the Nigerian government will still fail them, infact many might not even graduate self.

use that your front page well, those 2024 ones i can tell you for free was quota system from the current JAMB leadership to counterbalance igbos. There is no merit there.
Then in 2025, they attempted to annihilate igbos but it has backfired and they are crying because they were caught

In a sane country were minds are operating at an optimum, the first question that would be asked would be what happened between 2014 and 2015 to lead to such a massive jump in the highest overall score, and the continuos upward trend since then?


Those years wen jamb na paper and pencil who born you to score reach 300. When my older sisters used to write jamb in the late 90's I would look at the back of the jamb brochure where the exam body had published the names of the highest performers, the top scorers no dey reach 290 sef. Who born you, upon all the jacking when distractions like social media and smart phones never come board. Who born you.

Nowadays, pikin go play play play finish then go write jamb. Score go come out 240, 250, 3 million.


Anyways I like the change sha. The new CBT format, the change from paper and pencil, have massively contributed to the upward tick in scores. I don't actually think that jamb was more difficult in the past. I think that jamb, in the past, would regularly do wuru wuru (negative marking, anyone?) with the scores that students would get, maybe going as far as slashing 40, 50, 70 marks across board from your overall score just to maintain the illusion that the exam was more difficult than it truly was. With technology this has become increasingly difficult to pull off now. And the points the candidates are scoring now are a better reflection of their performance in the exam.

Because nothing you want tell me, regardless of the difficulty of the exam, at any given point in time, there should be candidates in the country capable of missing maybe 5 questions at most in all the subjects, giving them a point total that wound up around the 380, 390 range. In fact, if there are no sleight of hand by the exam body I expect that there would be candidates that will miss nothing and get a perfect score of 400.

No be small thing. But watch how this thread will take a tribal dimension in 1.2.3. go

Nigerian youths be smart. Use your talents wisely and shun tribalism. There are good and bad people in all tribes.
That is the aim of the OP.

2016 was our year, though a joint top scorer with Victory Emenike.

I have said it before now, and I will say it again. Outside the four eastern states of Abia, Anambra, Enough, and Imo, no other state in Nigeria comes close to my dearest Edo State in quality education. Forget the media claims of our noisy neighbours on the west wing.

Bini Rocks.

Oba gha tokpe'e!
